I met up with CathyM, George, Ewen, Chris and Dennis at Lake BG where we ran the bridge to bridge with an extra section at the start. It was very hot although later in the evening it cooled down and was quite pleasant. It was good company and I enjoyed the fact that there weren't hills! My legs were not very responsive and didn't want to run fast but that may have been because of RPM this morning.

About Me

I've been married almost 46 years, have 3 children and 5 grandchildren,. Four of our grandchildren live in Canberra. Our youngest daughter and her husband and baby live in Sydney.I was born in NZ but have lived in Canberra since 1981. I have retired from managing an Australian Apprenticeships Centre and am now loving working part-time at The Runners Shop. I started running in 1995. I prefer long distance running and have run 16 Canberra marathons, 1 Gold Coast marathon, 1 New York marathon, several half marathons and a number of triathlons. I ran my first Canberra marathon at age 50 and my 10th at 60 which means I am a Griffin in the ACT (ie having run 10 Canberra Marathons). I was happy to finish the Canberra Ultra Marathon (50km)in April 2006 in under 5 hours (4hrs 56mins). I also enjoy swimming, social cycling, exercising at the gym, travel and reading a good book. My husband David is officially retired. He keeps extremely fit playing squash and training for and competing in local, interstate and international duathlons and triathlons.
